Because the bankruptcy estate is so extensive and the jurisdiction of the court so broad, there may be lawsuits over the property or property rights of the estate. There also may be lawsuits concerning the debtor's discharge. If such a lawsuit is filed in a bankruptcy court, it is called an adversary proceeding.\n\nA party filing an adversary proceeding must also must complete and file Form 1040, the Adversary Proceeding Cover Sheet, unless the party files the adversary proceeding electronically through the court's Case Management/Electronic Case Filing system (CM/ECF). (CM/ECF captures the information on Form 1040 as part of the filing process.) When completed, the cover sheet summarizes basic information on the adversary proceeding. The clerk of court needs the information to process the adversary proceeding and prepare required statistical reports on court activity.\n\nThe cover sheet and the information contained on it do not replace or supplement the filing and service of pleadings or other papers as required by law, the Bankruptcy Rules, or the local rules of court. The cover sheet, which is largely selfexplanatory, must be completed by the plaintiff's attorney (or by the plaintiff if the plaintiff is not represented by an attorney). A separate cover sheet must be submitted to the clerk for each complaint filed.\n\n**Plaintiffs** and **Defendants.** Give the names of the plaintiffs and defendants exactly as they appear on the complaint.\n\n**Attorneys.** Give the names and addresses of the attorneys, if known.\n\n**Party**. Check the most appropriate box in the first column for the plaintiffs and the second column for the defendants.\n\n**Demand.** Enter the dollar amount being demanded in the complaint.\n\n**Signature.** This cover sheet must be signed by the attorney of record in the box on the second page of the form. If the plaintiff is represented by a law firm, a member of the firm must sign. If the plaintiff is pro se, that is, not represented by an attorney, the plaintiff must sign.\n\n# **UNITED STATES BANKRUPTCY COURT DISTRICT OF CONNECTICUT BRIDGEPORT DIVISION**\n\n| ----------------------------------------------------------- | | x |\n|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------|\n| In re: | | :

Despins, in his capacity as the chapter 11 trustee (the \"Trustee\") appointed in the\n\nchapter 11 case (the \"Chapter 11 Case\") of Ho Wan Kwok (the \"Debtor\" or \"Kwok\"), files this\n\n1 The Debtors in these chapter 11 cases are Ho Wan Kwok (also known as Guo Wengui, Miles Guo, and Miles Kwok, as well as numerous other aliases) (last four digits of tax identification number: 9595), Genever Holdings LLC (last four digits of tax identification number: 8202) and Genever Holdings Corporation. The mailing address for the Trustee, Genever Holdings LLC, and the Genever Holdings Corporation is Paul Hastings LLP, 200 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10166 c/o Luc A. Despins, as Trustee for the Estate of Ho Wan Kwok (solely for purposes of notices and communications).\n\nadversary complaint (the \"Complaint\") against defendant Legends OWO, LLC (the \"Defendant\"), stating as follows:\n\n# **NATURE OF ACTION**\n\n1. The Trustee commences this adversary proceeding to avoid and recover transfers of the Debtor's property prior to the commencement of this Chapter 11 Case.\n\n2. The Debtor, through his alter-ego shell company, Rule of Law Foundation III Inc. (\"ROL III\"), transferred funds in the amount of \\$418,539.30 prior to the Petition Date (as defined herein) to the Defendant as the initial transferee.\n\n3. These transfers were actually fraudulent, because the Debtor effectuated them as part of his \"shell game,\" and they were made with the intent to hinder, delay, and/or defraud the Debtor's creditors.\n\n## **JURISDICTION AND VENUE**\n\n4. This Court has subject matter jurisdiction over this adversary proceeding pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1334(b).\n\n5. This adversary proceeding has been referred to this Court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 157(a).\n\n6. The statutory predicates for the relief sought herein include sections 544, 548 and 550 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the \"Bankruptcy Code\") and New York Debtor & Creditor Law sections 273, 274, and 276 [2](#page-3-0) or any other applicable state law equivalents.\n\n2 All statutory references to New York Debtor and Creditor Law will hereinafter be referred to as \"N.Y. Debt. & Cred. Law\". The New York Uniform Voidable Transactions Act (\"NYUVT\") replaced the New York Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act (\"NYUFC\") and became effective on April 4, 2020 and applies to transfers made or obligations incurred on or after April 4, 2020. With respect to transfers prior to April 4, 2020, the Trustee seeks relief in this action under the NYUFC and N.Y. Debt. & Cred. Law sections 273, 273a, 275, 276 and 278.\n\n#### **THE PARTIES**\n\n7. The Trustee is the chapter 11 trustee in the Chapter 11 Case pursuant to the Bankruptcy Court's order entered on July 8, 2022 [Case No. 22-50073 (the \"Main Case\") Docket No. 523].\n\n8. The Defendant is a Delaware limited liability company with an address and place of business at 285 Fulton Street, Floor 45, New York, New York 10007-0089.\n\n#### **FACTS**\n\n#### **A. Chapter 11 Case**\n\n9. The Debtor filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the \"Bankruptcy Code\") on February 15, 2022 (the \"Petition Date\") in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Connecticut (the \"Bankruptcy Court\"), thus commencing the above-captioned chapter 11 case (the \"Chapter 11 Case\").\n\n10. On March 21, 2022, the Office of the United States Trustee appointed an Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors in this Chapter 11 Case. No examiner has been appointed.\n\n11. The Debtor's bankruptcy schedules, filed in March 2022 with the Bankruptcy Court, claimed that he owned \\$3,850 in assets and had incurred hundreds of millions of dollars of liabilities[.](#page-4-0)3 While the Debtor was, indeed, deeply indebted, his schedules failed to disclose the Debtor's property as held and/or transferred through his many alter-ego shell companies, including ROL III.\n\n12. On June 15, 2022, the Court entered a memorandum of decision and order [Main Case Docket No. 465] directing the United States Trustee to appoint a chapter 11 trustee in the Chapter 11 Case. Pursuant to this order, the United States Trustee selected Luc A. Despins as the\n\n3 Schedule of Assets and Liabilities, at 1 [Main Case Docket No. 78].\n\nTrustee. On July 8, 2022, the Court entered an order granting the appointment of Luc A. Despins as the Trustee in the Chapter 11 Case [Main Case Docket No. 523].\n\n## **B. Debtor's Use of Shell Companies and Trustee's Adversary Proceedings**\n\n13. ROL III is one of the numerous alter-ego shell companies used by the Debtor to hinder, delay, and/or defraud his creditors. [4](#page-5-0) For years, the Debtor has orchestrated a \"shell game,\" employing a convoluted web of shell companies, nominally owned by family members, lieutenants, and/or subordinates, but in reality, controlled by the Debtor. This shell game enabled the Debtor to use and spend and/or transfer millions of dollars of cash and other assets.\n\n14. Since his appointment, the Trustee has commenced a number of adversary proceedings in the Chapter 11 Case to, among other things, establish that the Debtor's shell companies were his alter-egos and/or that such companies and their assets were equitably owned by the Debtor and in several such adversary proceedings the Bankruptcy Court has already granted such relief. [5](#page-5-1)\n\n15. The fact patterns in these litigations consistently involve: (i) Debtor-controlled shell companies held by close family members and/or subordinates, (ii) assets purchased with cash from other Debtor-controlled entities and/or transferred to and among shell entities for no consideration, and (iii) the Debtor benefiting from and having control and dominion over such assets.\n\n4 The Trustee has or will imminently commence an adversary proceeding against ROL III, which adversary proceeding seeks, among other things, a declaratory judgment that ROL III is the alter ego of the Debtor. The Trustee incorporates by reference herein, the Trustee's Complaint filed in such adversary proceeding.\n\n5 These include the following adversary proceedings: (i) *Luc A. Despins, Chapter 11 Trustee v. HK International Funds Investments (USA) Limited, LLC, et al.* [Adv. Proc. No. 22-05003]; (ii) *Luc A. Despins, Chapter 11 Trustee v. Greenwich Land LLC, et al.* [Adv. Proc. No. 23-05005]; (iii) *Luc A. Despins, Chapter 11 Trustee v. Mei Guo* [Adv. Proc. No. 23-05008]; (iv) *Luc A. Despins, Chapter 11 Trustee v. HCHK Technologies, Inc., et al.* [Adv. Proc. No. 23-05013]; (v) *Luc A. Despins, Chapter 11 Trustee v. Taurus Fund LLC, et al.* [Adv. Proc. No. 23- 05017]; (vi) *Luc A. Despins, Chapter 11 Trustee v. Golden Spring (New York) Limited* [Adv. Proc. 23-05018]; and (vii) *Luc A. Despins, Chapter 11 Trustee v. Lamp Capital LLC, et al.* [Adv. Proc. 23-05023].\n\n## **C. Debtor's Conduct to Hinder, Delay, and/or Defraud Creditors**\n\n16. In addition to the matters addressed in the Trustee's adversary proceedings, the Bankruptcy Court has found that the Debtor was the beneficial owner of Ace Decade Limited (and through it, Dawn State Limited) and that the Debtor controlled and employed Ace Decade Limited's nominee shareholder, Yvette Wang.[6](#page-6-0)\n\n17. The Bankruptcy Court has also found that the \"G Entities\" (Gettr, G Fashion, G Music, GClubs, GNews and GEdu), the New Federal State of China and the Rule of Law Foundation, as well as other purportedly independent entities and organizations, were controlled by the Debtor, [7](#page-6-1) led by the Debtor[8](#page-6-2) and/or served \"the purposes of… and as business vehicles of\" the Debtor.[9](#page-6-3)\n\n18. Prior to the Petition Date, Judge Liman of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York found that Eastern Profit Corporation Limited, an entity originally owned by one of the Debtor's chefs before its transfer to Debtor's daughter, was \"in essence, a shell corporation\" for the Debtor.[10](#page-6-4)\n\n19. The Debtor has gone to great lengths to hinder and delay the collection efforts of one of his largest creditors, *i.e.*, Pacific Alliance Asia Opportunity Fund, L.P. (\"PAX\"). In 2017, PAX sued the Debtor in the Supreme Court of the State of New York (the \"New York Court\"),\n\n6 *Order Granting Motion to Hold Debtor in Contempt of Corporate Governance Order,* ¶¶ 1, 4 (Jan. 24, 2023, Docket No. 1372 (\"Corp. Governance Contempt Order\").\n\n7 *Corrected Memorandum of Decision Granting in Part Motion for Preliminary Injunction*, ¶ 3 (Adv. Proc. No. 22-05032, January 13, 2023 (\"The Debtor also controls Saraca Media Group and a related entity 'GTV'\").\n\n8 *Id*. at ¶ 7 (\"The Debtor is the leader of The Whistleblower Movement, NFSC, ROLF and Himalaya.\").\n\n9 *Id*. (\"The Whistleblower Movement, NFSC, ROLF, GSeries, and Himalaya serve the purposes of the Debtor, serve as business vehicles for the Debtor, and their members are personally loyal to the Debtor.\").\n\n10 *Eastern Profit Corp. Ltd. v. Strategic Vision US LLC*, No. 18-CV-2185 (LJL) 2021 WL 2554631, at \\*1 (S.D.N.Y. June 22, 2021).\n\nIndex No. 652077/2017 (the \"PAX Case\"), seeking judgment for monies owed. On February 3, 2021, PAX obtained a judgment from the New York Court against the Debtor in the sum of \\$116,402,019.57 (the \"PAX Judgment\"). PAX sought to enforce the PAX Judgment by levying the Debtor's assets—including the Lady May, which the Debtor falsely claimed was owned by his daughter, and the Debtor's luxury apartment in Manhattan, which the Debtor falsely claimed was held in trust for the Debtor's son. The Debtor's defiance of New York Court orders in postjudgment proceedings eventually resulted in the Debtor incurring contempt penalties of \\$134 million.\n\n20. The Debtor also used his alter egos, including ROL III, as personal piggy-banks, funding the lavish lifestyle to which he and his family had become accustomed, while concealing assets in these alter egos from his creditors and hindering and delaying creditors from recoveries on their claims. The transfers that the Debtor effectuated through these alter egos perpetuated the Debtor's fraudulent scheme.\n\n21. The Debtor has testified before the Bankruptcy Court that he has insufficient assets to pay his liabilities and that his luxurious lifestyle is funded by his family through businesses nominally held by family members.[11](#page-7-0) The Debtor scheduled only \\$3,850 in assets.[12](#page-7-1)\n\n22. In March 2023, the Debtor was arrested and remains confined pending his trial on federal criminal charges of, among other things, wire fraud, securities fraud, and money laundering.\n\n11 Hearing on Debtor's Motion for Entry of Interim and Final DIP Orders (I) Authorizing the Debtor to Obtain Unsecured, Subordinated Postpetition Financing and (II) Scheduling Interim and Final Hearings, and (III) Granting Related Relief (Main Case, April 27, 2022)\n\n12 *See* n.3\n\n23. In its criminal indictment of the Debtor, the United States Government asserts that the Debtor and his co-defendants \"utilized more than approximately 500 accounts held in the names of *at least 80 different entities or individuals* to launder more than \\$1 billion in fraud proceeds.\"[13](#page-8-0)\n\n24. The property of the Debtor's alter egos, including ROL III, was at all times prior to the Petition Date property of the Debtor.\n\n25. At all times relevant herein, the Debtor conducted business in New York, New York, including direction of the Transfers (as defined herein).\n\n#### **D. Transfers Made with Intent to Hinder, Delay, or Defraud Creditors**\n\n26. The Transfers at issue in this Complaint were made with the intent to hinder, delay, and/or defraud the Debtor's creditors inasmuch as they were all made through the Debtor's alterego shell companies operated as a part of the Debtor's shell game.\n\n27. The Debtor intentionally orchestrated his financial affairs in this manner in order to conceal and dissipate millions of dollars in assets while falsely pleading poverty to his many creditors. The Debtor claimed to be destitute while simultaneously spending heavily to maintain a billionaire lifestyle for himself and for his family members and close associates.\n\n28. The assets concealed and dissipated by the Debtor included funds that he obtained from the victims of his cryptocurrency, securities, and other fraud schemes. As a result of this conduct, the Debtor faces multiple felony fraud, money laundering, and racketeering charges in a\n\n13 *See* Memorandum of Law of the United States of America in Opposition to Defendant Yanping Wang's Motion for Pretrial Release at 29, attached as Exhibit B in the Reply of Chapter 11 Trustee to G Club Operations LLC's Supplemental Objection to Trustee's Motion to Compel and Request for Related Relief (June 23, 2023, Main Case Docket No. 1934).\n\ncriminal case pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. *See United States v. Ho Wan Kwok*, case no. 1:23-cr-00118-AT [ECF No. 215] (Jan. 3, 2024 S.D.N.Y.).\n\n29. The Debtor knew and intended that by concealing and dissipating his assets in this manner there would not be sufficient assets remaining to repay his creditors—including the many victims of his frauds. These transfers were thus necessarily made with the intent to hinder, delay, and/or defraud the Debtor's creditors.\n\n### **E. Transfers to the Defendant**\n\n30. Prior to the Petition Date, the Debtor, using his alter ego shell company, ROL III, or otherwise, transferred the Debtor's property to the Defendant (collectively, the \"Transfers\"), including, without limitation, as follows:\n\nSee **SCHEDULE A** attached hereto and made a part hereof.\n\n31. At the time of the Transfers, the Debtor had outstanding obligations to creditors of the Debtor's estate.\n\n32. The Defendant was the initial transferee of the Transfers.\n\n### **FIRST CLAIM**\n\n# **(Claim to Avoid and Recover Actual Fraudulent Transfers Pursuant to Bankruptcy Code sections 548(a)(1)(A) and 550(a))**\n\n33. The Trustee repeats and realleges the allegations contained in paragraphs 1-32 as if fully set forth herein.\n\n34. The Transfers were made by the Debtor through his alter ego, ROL III, with the actual intent to hinder, delay and/or defraud his creditors.\n\n35. The Debtor's intent to hinder, delay, and/or defraud his creditors in effectuating the Transfers is shown by, among other things:\n\na. The Transfers were effectuated using alter-ego shell companies;\n\n8\n\nb. The Transfers were concealed from the Debtor's creditors;\n\nc. The Transfers were effectuated as part of the Debtor's \"shell game\" with the aid of the Debtor's family members and other lieutenants and subordinates that he controlled in an effort to conceal and shield assets;\n\nd. The Transfers furthered the Debtor's fraudulent conduct by enabling the Debtor to benefit from his fraud without subjecting his property to the reach of his creditors;\n\ne. The Transfers furthered the Debtor's fraudulent conduct by enabling the Debtor to profit from his fraud without subjecting his property to the reach of his creditors;\n\nf. At the time of the Transfers, the Debtor was being sued, including by PAX in the PAX Case; and\n\ng. At the time of the Transfers, the Debtor was insolvent or undercapitalized.\n\n36. The Transfers are avoidable by the Trustee pursuant to section 548(a)(i)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code and are recoverable pursuant to section 550(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.\n\n### **SECOND CLAIM**\n\n# **(Claim to Avoid and Recover Actual Fraudulent Transfers pursuant to N.Y. Debt. & Cred. Law sections 273, 274, and 276, and Bankruptcy Code sections 544(b) and 550(a))**\n\n37. The Trustee repeats and realleges the allegations contained in paragraphs 1-32 as if fully set forth herein.\n\n38. The Transfers were made by the Debtor, through his alter ego company, ROL III, with the actual intent to hinder, delay and/or defraud his creditors.\n\n39. The Debtor's intent to hinder, delay, and/or defraud his creditors in effectuating the Transfers is shown by, among other things:\n\na. The Transfers were effectuated using alter-ego shell companies;\n\nb. The Transfers were concealed from the Debtor's creditors;\n\nc. The Transfers were effectuated as part of the Debtor's \"shell game\" with the aid of the Debtor's family members and other lieutenants and subordinates that he controlled in an effort to conceal and shield assets;\n\nd. The Transfers furthered the Debtor's fraudulent conduct by enabling the Debtor to benefit from his fraud without subjecting his property to the reach of his creditors;\n\ne. The Transfers furthered the Debtor's fraudulent conduct by enabling the Debtor to profit from his fraud without subjecting his property to the reach of his creditors;\n\nf. At the time of the Transfers, the Debtor was being sued, including by PAX in the PAX Case; and\n\ng. At the time of the Transfers, the Debtor was insolvent or undercapitalized.\n\n40. The Transfers are avoidable by the Trustee pursuant to N.Y. Debt. & Cred. Law sections 273(a)(1), 274, and 276, and section 544(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and recoverable pursuant to section 550(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.\n\n*[THE REMAINDER OF THIS PAGE IS INTENTIONALLY BLANK.]*\n\n#### **PRAYER FOR RELIEF**\n\nWHEREFORE, for the foregoing reasons, the Trustee respectfully requests that judgment be entered as follows:\n\n1. On the First Claim, (a) an order declaring that the Transfers in an amount not less than \\$418,539.30 are avoided pursuant to section 548(a)(1)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code; (b) an order directing that the Transfers be set aside; and (c) recovery of the Transfers, or the value thereof at the Trustee's option, from the Defendant for the benefit of the Debtor's estate pursuant to section 550(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code;\n\n2.

Despins（卢克·A·德斯平斯）以其作为在 Ho Wan Kwok（郭文贵）（“债务人”或“Kwok”）第11章案件（“第11章案件”）中获任命的第11章受托人（“受托人”）的身份，提交本\n\n1 本第11章案件中的债务人为 Ho Wan Kwok（郭文贵）（亦称 Guo Wengui、Miles Guo 和 Miles Kwok，以及其他众多别名）（税务识别号码后四位：9595）、Genever Holdings LLC（Genever Holdings 有限责任公司）（税务识别号码后四位：8202）及 Genever Holdings Corporation（Genever Holdings 公司）。受托人、Genever Holdings LLC 及 Genever Holdings Corporation 的邮寄地址为 Paul Hastings LLP（博钦律师事务所），200 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10166，转交 Luc A. Despins，作为 Ho Wan Kwok 破产财产的受托人（仅用于通知和通信目的）。\n\n对抗起诉状（“起诉状”），对被告 Legends OWO, LLC（“被告”）提起诉讼，陈述如下：\n\n诉讼性质\n\n1. 受托人提起本对抗程序，以撤销并追回在本第11章案件开始前对债务人财产所作的转让。\n\n2. 债务人通过其替身空壳公司 Rule of Law Foundation III Inc.（ROL III），在申请日（定义如下）之前向作为初始受让人的被告转让了 $418,539.30 的资金。\n\n3. 这些转让属于实际欺诈性转让，因为债务人作为其“空壳游戏”的一部分实施了这些转让，且作出这些转让的意图是阻碍、拖延和/或欺诈债务人的债权人。\n\n管辖权及审判地\n\n4. 本法院依据 28 U.S.C. § 1334(b) 对本对抗程序具有事项管辖权。\n\n5. 本对抗程序已依据 28 U.S.C. § 157(a) 移交本法院审理。\n\n6. 本案所请求救济的法定依据包括《美国法典》第11编（“破产法典”）第544、548及550条，以及《纽约州债务人与债权人法》第273、274及276条 [2]，或任何其他适用的州法对应规定。\n\n2 以下对《纽约州债务人与债权人法》的所有法条引用均称为“N.Y. Debt. & Cred. Law”。《纽约州统一可撤销交易法》（“NYUVT”）取代《纽约州统一欺诈性让与法》（“NYUFC”），并于 April 4, 2020 生效，适用于在 April 4, 2020 当日或之后作出的转让或承担的义务。对于 April 4, 2020 之前的转让，受托人在本诉讼中根据 NYUFC 及《纽约州债务人与债权人法》第273、273a、275、276及278条寻求救济。\n\n当事人\n\n7. 受托人是第11章案件中的第11章受托人，依据破产法院于 July 8, 2022 作出的命令[案件编号 22-50073（“主案”）案卷编号 523]获任命。\n\n8. 被告是一家 Delaware（特拉华州）有限责任公司，其地址及营业地点为 285 Fulton Street, Floor 45, New York, New York 10007-0089。\n\n事实\n\nA. 第11章案件\n\n9. 债务人于 February 15, 2022 在 United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Connecticut（美国康涅狄格州联邦破产法院）（“破产法院”）提交了根据《美国法典》第11编（“破产法典”）第11章请求救济的自愿申请（“申请日”），从而启动了上述标题所列第11章案件（“第11章案件”）。\n\n10. 于 March 21, 2022，Office of the United States Trustee（美国受托人办公室）在本第11章案件中任命了无担保债权人正式委员会。尚未任命审查员。\n\n11. 债务人于 March 2022 向破产法院提交的破产财产清单声称，其拥有 $3,850 的资产，并负有数亿美元的债务[。]3 尽管债务人确实负债累累，其财产清单未披露债务人通过其众多替身空壳公司（包括 ROL III）持有和/或转让的财产。\n\n12. 于 June 15, 2022，法院作出决定备忘录和命令[主案案卷编号 465]，指示美国受托人在第11章案件中任命一名第11章受托人。根据该命令，美国受托人选定 Luc A. Despins 为\n\n3 资产和负债清单，第1页[主案案卷编号 78]。\n\n受托人。于 July 8, 2022，法院作出命令，批准任命 Luc A. Despins 为第11章案件的受托人[主案案卷编号 523]。\n\nB. 债务人对空壳公司的使用及受托人的对抗程序\n\n13. ROL III 是债务人用以阻碍、拖延和/或欺诈其债权人的众多替身空壳公司之一。[4] 多年来，债务人策划了一场“空壳游戏”，利用由家庭成员、亲信和/或下属名义持有、但实际上由债务人控制的复杂空壳公司网络。这场空壳游戏使债务人能够使用、支出和/或转让数百万美元现金及其他资产。\n\n14. 自获任命以来，受托人已在第11章案件中提起多项对抗程序，以便除其他事项外，确认债务人的空壳公司系其替身和/或该等公司及其资产的衡平所有权属于债务人；在其中若干对抗程序中，破产法院已准予该等救济。[5]\n\n15. 这些诉讼中的事实模式一贯包括：(i) 由债务人控制、由近亲和/或下属持有的空壳公司；(ii) 使用来自其他由债务人控制实体的现金购买的资产和/或无对价转让给空壳实体及在空壳实体之间转让的资产；以及 (iii) 债务人从该等资产中受益，并对其拥有控制及支配权。\n\n4 受托人已对或即将对 ROL III 提起一项对抗程序，该对抗程序寻求的救济包括确认 ROL III 是债务人的替身的确认判决。受托人在此通过引用并入受托人在该对抗程序中提交的起诉状。\n\n5 这些对抗程序包括如下案件：(i) 第11章受托人Luc A. Despins（卢克·A·德斯平斯）诉HK International Funds Investments (USA) Limited, LLC（HK国际基金投资（美国）有限责任公司）等 [Adv. Proc. No. 22-05003]；(ii) 第11章受托人Luc A. Despins诉Greenwich Land LLC（格林尼治地产有限责任公司）等 [Adv. Proc.

Despins诉Lamp Capital LLC（蓝普资本有限责任公司）等 [Adv. Proc. 23-05023]。\n\nC. 债务人为阻碍、拖延及/或欺诈债权人而实施的行为\n\n16. 除受托人的对抗程序所处理的事项外，破产法院还认定，债务人是Ace Decade Limited（艾斯·迪凯德有限公司）（并通过该公司控制Dawn State Limited（道恩州有限公司））的实益所有人，且债务人控制并雇用了Ace Decade Limited的名义股东Yvette Wang（伊薇特·王）。[6]\n\n17. 破产法院还认定，“G Entities”（Gettr（盖特尔）、G Fashion（G时尚）、G Music（G音乐）、GClubs（G俱乐部）、GNews（G新闻）和GEdu（G教育））、New Federal State of China（新中国联邦）及Rule of Law Foundation（法治基金会），以及其他表面上独立的实体和组织，均由债务人控制，[7] 由债务人领导[8]，及/或“为债务人的目的服务……并作为债务人的商业工具”。[9]\n\n18. 在申请日之前，United States District Court for the Southern District of New York（美国纽约南区联邦地区法院）的Liman法官认定，Eastern Profit Corporation Limited（东方利润有限公司）这一实体——其最初由债务人的一名厨师拥有，后转让给债务人的女儿——实质上是债务人的“空壳公司”。[10]\n\n19. 债务人为阻碍和拖延其最大债权人之一，即Pacific Alliance Asia Opportunity Fund, L.P.（太平洋联盟亚洲机会基金有限合伙企业，下称“PAX”）的追偿工作，煞费苦心。2017年，PAX在Supreme Court of the State of New York（纽约州最高法院，下称“纽约法院”）提起诉讼，\n\n6 准许动议并认定债务人藐视公司治理命令的裁定，第¶¶ 1, 4段（Jan. 24, 2023, Docket No. 1372（“公司治理藐视裁定”）。\n\n7 部分准许初步禁令动议的经更正决定备忘录，第¶ 3段（Adv. Proc. No. 22-05032, January 13, 2023（“债务人还控制Saraca Media Group（萨拉卡媒体集团）及关联实体‘GTV’”）。\n\n8 同上，第¶ 7段（“债务人是The Whistleblower Movement（爆料革命）、NFSC、ROLF和Himalaya（喜马拉雅）的领导人。”）。\n\n9 同上。（“爆料革命、NFSC、ROLF、GSeries和喜马拉雅为债务人的目的服务，作为债务人的商业工具，其成员在个人上忠于债务人。”）。\n\n10 Eastern Profit Corp. Ltd. v. Strategic Vision US LLC, No. 18-CV-2185 (LJL) 2021 WL 2554631, at \\*1 (S.D.N.Y. June 22, 2021).\n\nIndex No. 652077/2017（下称“PAX案”），请求就所欠款项作出判决。2021年2月3日，PAX从纽约法院获得针对债务人的$116,402,019.57判决（下称“PAX判决”）。PAX试图通过扣押债务人的资产来执行PAX判决——包括Lady May（梅夫人号），债务人虚假声称该游艇由其女儿所有；以及债务人在曼哈顿的豪华公寓，债务人虚假声称该公寓为债务人的儿子以信托形式持有。债务人在判决后程序中拒不遵守纽约法院命令，最终导致债务人被处以$134 million的藐视法庭罚款。\n\n20. 债务人还将其另我实体，包括ROL III（ROL III公司），作为个人的提款库，在向债权人隐匿这些另我实体中的资产、阻碍和拖延债权人就其债权获得清偿的同时，为其本人及家人已习惯的奢侈生活方式提供资金。债务人通过这些另我实体实施的转移延续了债务人的欺诈计划。\n\n21. 债务人已在破产法院作证称，其资产不足以清偿其负债，且其奢侈生活方式由其家人通过名义上由家庭成员持有的企业提供资金。[11] 债务人仅在资产清单中列报$3,850的资产。[12]\n\n22. 2023年3月，债务人被逮捕，并在其因包括电信欺诈、证券欺诈和洗钱在内的联邦刑事指控受审前一直被羁押。\n\n11 关于债务人提出临时和最终DIP命令的动议之听证会，该命令请求：(I) 授权债务人获得无担保、次级的申请后融资；(II) 安排临时和最终听证会；以及 (III) 给予相关救济（Main Case, April 27, 2022）\n\n12 见注释3\n\n23. 美国政府在对债务人的刑事起诉书中主张，债务人及其共同被告“利用以至少80个不同实体或个人名义持有的约500多个账户，对超过$1 billion的欺诈所得进行洗钱。”[13]\n\n24. 债务人的另我实体（包括ROL III）的财产，在申请日之前任何时候均为债务人的财产。\n\n25. 在本案相关的任何时候，债务人在纽约州纽约市从事商业活动，包括指示转移（定义如下）。\n\nD. 为阻碍、拖延或欺诈债权人而作出的转移\n\n26. 本起诉状所涉转移均系通过债务人的另我空壳公司作出，该等公司作为债务人空壳游戏的一部分运营，因此该等转移系为阻碍、拖延及/或欺诈债务人的债权人而作出。\n\n27. 债务人故意以此方式安排其财务事务，以便隐匿和耗散数百万美元的资产，同时向其众多债权人虚假声称贫困。债务人声称自己一贫如洗，却同时大量支出，以维持其本人、其家庭成员及亲密同伴的亿万富豪生活方式。\n\n28. 债务人隐匿和耗散的资产包括其从加密货币、证券及其他欺诈计划的受害人处获得的资金。由于该等行为，债务人在United States District Court for the Southern District of New York（美国纽约南区联邦地区法院）审理的一起刑事案件中面临多项重罪欺诈、洗钱和敲诈勒索指控。见United States v. Ho Wan Kwok（美国诉郭文贵案）, case no. 1:23-cr-00118-AT [ECF No. 215] (Jan. 3, 2024 S.D.N.Y.).\n\n13 见United States of America（美利坚合众国）反对被告Yanping Wang（王雁平）审前释放动议的法律备忘录第29页，该备忘录作为附件B附于第11章受托人就G Club Operations LLC（G俱乐部运营有限责任公司）对受托人强制履行动议及相关救济请求提出的补充异议所作答复中（June 23, 2023, Main Case Docket No. 1934）。\n\n29. 债务人明知并意图通过以此方式隐匿和耗散其资产，将不会有足够的剩余资产偿还其债权人——包括其众多欺诈行为的受害人。因此，该等转移必然是为阻碍、拖延及/或欺诈债务人的债权人而作出。\n\nE. 向被告作出的转移\n\n30. 在申请日之前，债务人通过其另我空壳公司ROL III，或以其他方式，向被告转移了债务人的财产（统称“转移”），包括但不限于如下：\n\n见随附并构成本文件一部分的附表A。\n\n31. 在转移发生时，债务人对债务人财产的债权人负有未清偿义务。\n\n32. 被告是该等转移的初始受让人。\n\n第一项请求\n（根据《破产法》sections 548(a)(1)(A)和550(a)提出的撤销及追偿实际欺诈性转移之请求）\n\n33. 受托人重述并再次主张第1至32段所载指控，如同在此完整列明。\n\n34. 债务人通过其另我实体ROL III作出该等转移时，具有阻碍、拖延及/或欺诈其债权人的实际意图。\n\n35. 债务人在实施该等转移时阻碍、拖延及/或欺诈其债权人的意图，除其他事项外，可由下列事实证明：\n\na. 该等转移系使用另我空壳公司实施；\n\nb. 该等转移对债务人的债权人予以隐瞒；\n\nc. 该等转移作为债务人的“空壳游戏”的一部分实施，债务人的家庭成员及其所控制的其他副手和下属协助实施该等转移，旨在隐匿和保护资产；\n\nd. 该等转移通过使债务人得以从其欺诈中获益，同时不使其财产受到债权人追索，进一步促成了债务人的欺诈行为；\n\ne. 该等转移通过使债务人得以从其欺诈中获利，同时不使其财产受到债权人追索，进一步促成了债务人的欺诈行为；\n\nf. 在转移发生时，债务人正被提起诉讼，包括PAX在PAX案中对其提起的诉讼；以及\n\ng. 在转移发生时，债务人资不抵债或资本不足。\n\n36. 受托人可根据《破产法》section 548(a)(i)(A)撤销该等转移，并可根据《破产法》section 550(a)追偿该等转移。\n\n第二项请求\n（根据N.Y. Debt. & Cred. Law sections 273, 274, and 276以及《破产法》sections 544(b) and 550(a)提出的撤销及追偿实际欺诈性转移之请求）\n\n37. 受托人重述并再次主张第1至32段所载指控，如同在此完整列明。\n\n38. 债务人通过其另我公司ROL III作出该等转移时，具有阻碍、拖延及/或欺诈其债权人的实际意图。\n\n39. 债务人在实施该等转移时阻碍、拖延及/或欺诈其债权人的意图，除其他事项外，可由下列事实证明：\n\na. 该等转移系使用另我空壳公司实施；\n\nb. 该等转移对债务人的债权人予以隐瞒；\n\nc. 该等转移作为债务人的“空壳游戏”的一部分实施，债务人的家庭成员及其所控制的其他副手和下属协助实施该等转移，旨在隐匿和保护资产；\n\nd. 该等转移通过使债务人得以从其欺诈中获益，同时不使其财产受到债权人追索，进一步促成了债务人的欺诈行为；\n\ne. 该等转移通过使债务人得以从其欺诈中获利，同时不使其财产受到债权人追索，进一步促成了债务人的欺诈行为；\n\nf. 在转移发生时，债务人正被提起诉讼，包括PAX在PAX案中对其提起的诉讼；以及\n\ng. 在转移发生时，债务人资不抵债或资本不足。\n\n40. 受托人可根据N.Y. Debt. & Cred. Law sections 273(a)(1), 274, and 276及《破产法》section 544(b)撤销该等转移，并可根据《破产法》section 550(a)追偿该等转移。\n\n[本页其余部分有意留白。]\n\n救济请求\n\n因此，基于前述理由，受托人谨请求作出如下判决：\n\n1. 就第一项请求，(a) 作出命令，宣告金额不低于$418,539.30的转移根据《破产法》section 548(a)(1)(A)予以撤销；(b) 作出命令，指示撤销该等转移；以及 (c) 根据《破产法》section 550(a)(1)，为债务人财产之利益，向被告追偿该等转移，或由受托人选择追偿其价值；\n\n2. 就第二项请求，(a) 作出命令，宣告金额不低于$418,539.30的转移根据《破产法》section 544(b)及N.Y.
